Introduction
The EMBLEM MRI S-ICD System is an innovative, fully subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) that provides protection from Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) without invading the heart and blood vessels.
How it Works
The S-ICD System continuously monitors the patient’s heart rhythm and sends an electrical shock to correct any detected heart arrhythmia.
Procedure
The S-ICD System is surgically inserted during a 6-step procedure that generally takes about one hour.
Indications and Contraindications
The S-ICD System is intended to provide defibrillation therapy for the treatment of life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias in patients who do not have symptomatic bradycardia, incessant ventricular tachycardia, or spontaneous, frequently recurring ventricular tachycardia that is reliably terminated with anti-tachycardia pacing.
Unipolar pacing and impedance-based features are contraindicated for use with the S-ICD System.
